    And speaking of old guys........

    I got the two dose vaccine ( Shingrex?) after two friends both had shingles. Both had incredible pain and one had it on their face and eyes. No doubt about a vaccine for me after that !!

    300 wsm short barrel

    I use 63 grains of H4350, Norma brass, Federal Mag primers and 168 grain Barnes ttsx’s. I get an easy bolt lift and slight ejector swipe marks. I think Norma brass may be a little soft. I get swipe marks on their factory 300 wsm Bondstrikes also.

    What public land in a state/ area would you like to hunt?

Complete with a wall tent, 30-30, red and black wool plaid and a camp deer tag to eat venison while everyone was in camp.

    "Old Rifles"

    Because it became known either through marketing or just pure luck as the “Rifleman’s Rifle” . I personally think that they are a beautiful piece of American machinery made by craftsmen that hand fitted a lot of the parts together.

    Lighter 30-06 for the mountains?

    The Rifle really likes Hornady Precision Hunter 178 grain factory loads. I also handload for it with StaBall 6.5 and 168 grain Nosler ABLR’s and they shoot great also.

    Lighter 30-06 for the mountains?

    Kimber Mountain Ascent 30-06. Leupold 4.5x14 cds scope. Very lightweight to carry. The target depicts 3 shots with the brake and 3 without. I’ve been very happy with it. It is a thumper without the brake but not totally uncomfortable.

    Arizona Late Season Rifle Clothing Set-up

    Go for the Superdown and pack it in with you. I was in 27 for the late hunt last year and it was cold in the mornings and in the 40’s in the afternoon. Layers are your friend. I love the zip off Superdown and the zip off merino long John’s so you don’t have to take your boots off. Have fun...
